## Technical Details
|
|
|
|
### Recording Strategy Implementation
|
|
|
|
The application now automatically detects the appropriate recording strategy:
|
|
|
|
**StrokeBoundary (Default):**
|
|
- All ergometer workouts
|
|
- On-water workouts without high-frequency GPS
|
|
- Any workout with in-stroke curves
|
|
|
|
**GPSUpdate (Auto-detected):**
|
|
- On-water workouts with GPS data
|
|
- When record frequency > stroke frequency (interval < 2.0 seconds)
|
|
|
|
### In-Stroke Curve Support
|
|
|
|
Four export modes now available:
|
|
|
|
1. **Off** - Standard metrics only
|
|
2. **Summary** - Quartile statistics per stroke
|
|
3. **Downsampled** - 16-point curves (default for Level 4)
|
|
4. **Companion** - Full-resolution curves in separate JSON file
|
|
|
|
### Developer Fields Supported
|
|
|
|
**Total: 32 developer fields** across 5 categories:
|
|
|
|
- Core rowing metrics: 10 fields (IDs 0-9, 19)
|
|
- Oarlock single: 8 fields (IDs 11-18)
|
|
- Oarlock dual: 12 fields (IDs 200-211)
|
|
- In-stroke axis: 3 fields (IDs 90-92)
|
|
- Metadata: 1 field (ID 10)
|
|

|
## Next Steps (Optional Enhancements)
|
|
|
|
### Short-term
|
|
1. Install updated rowingdata dependency on production
|
|
```bash
|
|
pip install git+https://github.com/sanderroosendaal/rowingdata.git@develop#egg=rowingdata
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. Run test suite to verify installation
|
|
```bash
|
|
python manage.py test rowers.tests.test_fit_export
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
3. Test with sample workouts
|
|
- Export erg workout (basic Level 2)
|
|
- Export OTW workout with GPS (Level 2 + GPS)
|
|
- Export workout with oarlock data (Level 3)
|
|
- Export workout with curves (Level 4)
|
|
|
|
4. Validate with external tools
|
|
- Upload to intervals.icu
|
|
- Decode with FIT SDK
|
|
- Verify UUID and field IDs
|
|
|
|
### Long-term
|
|
1. **Monitoring**: Track export success/failure rates
|
|
2. **Analytics**: Monitor which in-stroke modes users prefer
|
|
3. **Optimization**: Consider caching strategy detection results
|
|
4. **Enhancement**: Add user preference for default export mode
|
|
5. **Integration**: Explore direct intervals.icu API integration
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Known Limitations
|
|
|
|
1. **Platform Support**: Not all platforms support FIT developer fields
|
|
2. **GPS Detection**: Threshold (2.0 sec) may need tuning for some devices
|
|
3. **Curve Length**: Hard limit at 127 points for embedded curves (standard limitation)
|
|
4. **Companion Files**: Users must manually upload JSON files to platforms that support them
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## Rollback Plan
|
|
|
|
If issues arise, rollback is straightforward:
|
|
|
|
1. **Revert dependency** in `requirementsdj4.2.txt`:
|
|
```
|
|
rowingdata==3.6.10
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. **Revert code changes**:
|
|
- Remove `recording_strategy` parameter from export calls
|
|
- Simplify `workout_fitemail_view` if needed
|
|
|
|
3. **No database changes** were made, so no migration rollback needed
|
